Toilet chip repair in Swingbrow without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
